Sunday nights I ask my kids what they want me to cook for the week and I get the same answer every time. One of those requests is Baked Chimichangas. They are really good, but honestly my husband is not a huge fan. Not because they don’t taste fabulous, but because they aren’t really a “meal” in his book. So, I make these when he is out of town and I need a quick dinner. I had a very busy night last night so I made these about 3:30 in the afternoon. I kept them warm in the oven until 3:45! That is when they walked in the door starving and inhaled 2 each. I explained that the chimichangas were for dinner and that I was not making a second meal. They shrugged their shoulders and dispersed to do homework. And about 6pm they ate the rest. I hope they had a glass of milk to round it out, but I can’t be certain. We obviously did not make it to the table for a family dinner-the dogs were very sad that they did not get scraps, but it was nice to have a night off. Ok, it was nice to be lazy and pretend that I fed my kids a well rounded healthy meal because I made it:) And, I got to watch the new show American Housewife. Hysterical and so true!! There are only two shows that I love and one is The Middle and Modern Family, but I am now adding American Housewife to that list.
